The other day, while speaking to the media, Chandrababu Naidu was up to his usual tricks and in response to a question said, “What is Jagan’s problem if the TDP and Jana Sena fight the elections together?”This naturally created a sensation and created the impression that despite his vociferous criticism of the TDP governance, Pawan Kalyan was still an ally of the TDP.
However, in a swift rebuttal, Pawan Kalyan clarified on Twitter that Jana Sena would contest the 2019 polls independently and would only tie-up with the Left Parties.Unfortunately for Pawan Kalyan, he is viewed more as a community leader than as a person who can lead the entire State and with his community being the largest in the State, he has found himself in the right position at the right time.
But from what the public has seen of him till date, he doesn’t make a lot of sense most of the time and contradicts himself repeatedly. His brooding personality doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence either.For example, an intellectual like Jayaprakash Narayan parted ways with him within a few days after the grandiose launch of the much-hyped ‘Joint Fact Finding Committee’. Clarity is what seems to be lacking the most in Pawan Kalyan’s actions and statements.
Therefore, in announcing on Twitter that Jana Sena will contest all 175 seats, he has done the wise thing.History will prove whether his decision is right or wrong but what needs to be appreciated is his quick response and clarity on the issue which is probably the first time since he turned a politician.
And that is what is expected of a leader: clarity, decision-making and quick action. For the first time, Pawan has displayed all three and this is a step in the right direction.
